INA Towing’s Christmas Celebration in Baltimore was a magical sight to see. As long as I can remember, it has been tradition for Gay Rochester, CEO of INA Towing and the INA Team to convert a penthouse at the Lord Baltimore Hotel into a vision from the North Pole. Magical is the operative word, but it’s something you don’t forget. During this event, INA brings elite towers throughout Gay’s network into Baltimore during the week of the American Towman Show. Gay Rochester uses this time to express to her network about their importance to her and her team.
INA Towing’s main stay is their commitment to paying their tow professionals their worth, getting them to and from jobs and back to their families safely. Gay Rochester started our group off on Thursday evening after the show with a wonderful 5-course meal. Gay uses this time to remind her network of her commitment to them, their families and this great industry.
Friday started with a wonderful continental breakfast which allowed time for everyone to gather and enjoy community before taking on the day. Lunch appetizers were offered for all attending the activities of the day. This year, they held the 2nd annual INA: BouRb-A-Nation. This special event took place during the Friday night party that allows attendees to try some of the best top-shelf bourbons for a simple donation to the TRAA Scholarship Fund. This was followed by a Bourbon Auction that INA Towing matched dollar for dollar. Incredible assistance to a great cause, don’t you think? In 2024, INA Towing and their tow professionals raised over $34,000.00 for the TRAA Scholarship fund.
This year, I am happy to announce that the 2025 INA Christmas Party and the Auction raised north of $50,000.00 for the TRAA Scholarship Fund. Huge result! This is an event that should not be missed in the future with amazing food, great company, and an auction that gives back by investing in the future of our industry. This legendary event was put together by Gay Rochester (CEO), Kim Huesman (Sr VP of Operations), Matt Whitehead (Director of Maintenance), and Katrina Lumas (Operations Manager). INA Towing has assembled a dream team, with a heart and passion for this industry and its Tow Professionals! Don’t mis this event Nov 2025, we hope to see you there!
